The Uchiha clan, which was wiped out entirely, lacked vision.

Chapter 44 Konoha’s enemy

"Konoha is moving pretty fast. It's only been a few days, and they've already sent spies over."

Uchiha An finished his treatment for the day, then jumped down from the tower with a grin, heading in the direction Pain had pointed out.

Killing Konoha ninjas is what Uchiha An loves most; he never gets tired of this game.

The rain continued to fall steadily, and people on the street wore raincoats and straw hats, hiding their faces in the shadows of the hats, blending in with the crowd and making them difficult to spot.

Unfortunately, the Land of Rain doesn't catch spies by sight at all!

Under the "Rain Tiger Freedom Technique," no one can sneak in.

Uchiha An swaggered straight toward his target, a man dressed like a merchant who had entered the village with a caravan. However, the chakra aura emanating from him completely betrayed him.

Uchiha An arrived in front of the caravan, pointed with one hand, and shouted loudly:

"Hey, you, yes, I'm talking about you."

"You've been caught. Come with me!"

The spy's pupils suddenly contracted, but he still stubbornly resisted, forcing a smile as he handed over a bag of money, saying apologetically:

"We've just entered the village and haven't opened for business yet. We'll wait until later..."

"No need to wait!" Uchiha An interrupted him directly, waving his hand and saying, "You're a ninja from Konoha, do you think I can't tell?"

"Be smart and surrender now, or I won't hesitate to kill you on the spot and use your head to cover my tracks."

The ninja's identity was exposed on the spot, and his expression changed immediately. With a wave of his hand, several balls were smashed on the ground, and with a "bang", a large amount of thick smoke was splashed out.

But before he could escape, a gust of wind came and a foot kicked him hard in the right knee.

With a "crack," his right leg broke. The broken shinbone pierced the skin, gleaming with a stark white luster.

The ninja fell forward involuntarily, like a felled cedar tree.

"Ah..." He had barely let out a scream when a hand reached out, grabbed his chin, and dislocated his jaw joint.

With a flick of his fingertip, a venom sac the size of a fingernail flew out along with his molar.

An Shun also pulled out the poisonous fangs from his mouth.

He stubbornly resisted, his hands quickly reaching into his bag, but before he could draw his sword and dagger, a pair of large hands pressed down on his shoulder joints, and with a slight shake, dislocated his arms as well.

The movements were fluid and graceful, like disassembling an exquisite puppet toy.

Uchiha An understood his fighting style even better than he did; everything was as if they had rehearsed it many times, and their coordination was flawless.

After easily capturing the spy, Uchiha An grabbed the man by the back of his shirt with one hand and casually tossed him to a Rain Ninja on the roadside.

"Hey, take him to the tower and hand him over to the people there for interrogation. I have to catch my next shift."

"Oh, yes." The rain ninja hurriedly stood at attention, saluted, and reached out to take the spy.

"Hey, you better watch out, don't let this guy kill you. Although you can get information even if he dies, the living are more valuable."

"I understand, please don't worry!"

After handing the person over, Uchiha An leaped onto the roof, becoming a blur as he headed off in another direction.

Unlike the original storyline where Jiraiya ventured alone, this time Konoha sent a large number of people, all of whom infiltrated through different channels.

Once inside, these people each displayed their unique abilities, like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea.

Some infiltrated other people's homes and replaced ordinary villagers; some transformed directly into the village's ninjas; some kept their identities hidden and released ninja beasts to roam around; and some simply blatantly used their ninja identities to escort caravans into the village.

The people in front were easily subdued by Uchiha An and handed over to other ninjas to be taken back for interrogation. Only the ninja who appeared openly with the caravan at the end was in trouble.

According to the current rules of the ninja world, even if the two countries go to war, the ninjas who escort caravans on missions will not be harmed.

After all, all countries need ninjas to carry out missions to earn rewards, and if they kill each other indiscriminately, their economies will collapse.

The usual practice is that the caravan hires ninjas from one country to go to the border, and then ninjas from another country take over and continue the journey for the second half.

However, this practice is usually limited to the five major powers, and small countries like the Land of Rain are not considered in the scope of the handover.

Therefore, if Konoha Village accepts a mission to the Land of Earth, they will escort the ninja to the border of the Land of Earth and hand it over to the Land of Earth ninja, instead of withdrawing once they reach the Land of Rain.

It is precisely because of this unspoken rule that ninjas escorting caravans dare to swagger into the Land of Rain.

People who are in the public eye are often closely monitored until they leave the country.

Whether this person can obtain the desired information depends on who has the better skills.

If he can fool the ninjas of the Land of Rain who are monitoring him from the outside, sneak out quietly, and find out the information he wants, then he will win.

But if he gets caught, he will have to bear the consequences and be secretly disposed of.

However, this is only the general case. If he encounters someone like Uchiha An who is unreasonable, then he is in trouble.

Uchiha An doesn't care about any unspoken rules or anything like that, and he doesn't care whether the Land of Rain's economy collapses or not.

Your Rain Country's economy is none of my business, Uchiha Ancho!

The war is about to begin, and who knows what the ninja world will be like after it's over? Who cares about you!

"Hey, it's you, Konoha ninja. Come with me!"

Faced with Uchiha An's blatant hostility, the Konoha ninja was clearly somewhat bewildered.

"What you're doing is against the rules."

"Rules?" Uchiha An sneered. "From today onwards, we call the shots in the ninja world!"

Without wasting words with the ninja, he flashed to the man's side and kicked him.

First, disable his mobility, and the rest will be easy.

To Uchiha An's surprise, the ninja suddenly leaped backward, dodging his attack.

"Wow, that's pretty good!" Uchiha An's eyes lit up, finally showing some interest. "Although I didn't use my full strength, ordinary ninjas can't dodge my attacks."

"With your agility and speed, you're at least an elite Jonin."

"But your face is very unfamiliar. Could you be Danzo's dog?"

"Haha... No matter who you are, now that you're here, you're not leaving!"

Uchiha An laughed, drew his short sword, and went forward to engage in hand-to-hand combat with him.

Although healing Nagato took a toll on him, he still had the ability to activate Susanoo. However, since this was Amegakure, there were too many houses around, so he was hesitant to engage in a full-blown fight.

Therefore, if a problem can be solved using taijutsu, he will try to avoid using ninjutsu.

For some unknown reason, the ninja on the other side did not use any ninjutsu, but instead turned around and fled out of the village.

Led snakes out of their holes?

The thought flashed through Uchiha An's mind for a moment before he extinguished it.

Whatever!

It's convenient to make a big scene in the village, so going out and causing a ruckus is exactly what he wants.

He immediately followed behind the ninja, not in a hurry to catch up, but just slowly hanging on.

The two left Amegakure one after the other and came to an open space, where the ninja finally stopped.

Uchiha An also stopped, landing a short distance in front of him. He looked around and sneered:

"Hey, bring out all your hidden troops!"

"Let me see who these people are!"

Sure enough, before he finished speaking, two figures emerged from the nearby woods and, together with the previous ninja, launched a three-way attack, surrounding Uchiha An.

Uchiha An looked around.

Oh ho, they're all acquaintances.
